I suspect most managers know when the build is broken or not: they will hear about it from more people then Peter had to hear about TPS Reports in Office Space.<BR/><BR/>But most managers probably don't really understand how it all really works so they are afraid of losing any resources. They also don't want to discuss things like promotions, training, compensation, coworker relationships, stree levels so they just passively deny that you would ever be unhappy and leave. So therefore the only thing that could possibly happen would be for you to unexpectedly get hit by a bus.Christopher Painterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12167478740431444267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9537945.post-28457362053405973212007-09-14T17:23:00.000-05:002007-09-14T17:23:00.000-05:00Now I have to try that recipe this weekend..<BR/><BR/>Speaking of "show must go on" topic, I never really put much thoughts into it until now: why is it that most managers dealing with SCM always refers to being "hit by a bus?" Especially when they encourage cross-training and developing well defined automation systems. I know of 2 previous managers who used that reference..<BR/><BR/>Is that how most Engineers working in our field will end up? Death by bus.. man thats going to leave a mark.Davyhttp://www.allscm.comnoreply@blogger.com
